This is my today mock from Mock Draft Hero (great site). The theme of this mock was adding some playmakers, speed, nastiness, and depth. - Sadiq fell to us and with his speed/talent I couldn't pass him up. - Rodriguez is a defensive playmaker that could be an energizer for our front 7 and eventually replace Aziz. - Rutledge is my man crush, pound the table OG depth this year and future starter. I'd also see if he can play OC. - Kilgore is someone Texans seem to have done work on and like. He's versatile, fast, good tackler and SWARM kinda dude. - Proctor is undersized homewrecking DT who can provide some interior pass rush and rotate with our DTs. - Allar was preseason Top QB/1st rounder who got hurt and slid down draft ladder, but we grab the big armed/atypical pro-sized dude with potential in the 4th to see if we can develop him. - Zuhn is just a solid dude who can play across OL and could project as our OC of the future. Handy bench guy, who can compete for time. - Davis has massive potential, elite size and outstanding athleticism. Very good ball skills for a 6'4" corner and runs 4.41. Missed almost half of his senior year and that's only way we get him here. - As a retired AF Officer, I'm bending my allegiance and drafting this Navy stud. Kid is a big play waiting to happen with 4.4 speed, great hands, and toughness. Can play WR, RB, return kicks and other ST roles. I would love to see us add him to our offense. - Finally, as a U of H grad I had to take Connors. He solidified himself with great East/West Shrine Bowl performance and he's SWARMy.
